Weekly Update 338

I’m
going
lead
this
post
with
where
I
finished
the
video
because
it
brought
the
biggest
smile
to
Charlotte’s
and
my
faces
this
week:

This.
Is.
Amazing
😍

When
I
talked
about
the
McLaren
in
this
week’s
video,
Frits
made
the
comment
“the
smile
on
your
face
says
it
all”,
which
absolutely
nailed
it.
But
more
than
that,
it
brings
a
smile
to
the
face
of

everyone
who
sees
it
(I
suspect
the
colour
helps),
we’re
just
loving
seeing
the
excitement
expressed
by
kids
and
adults
alike.
It’s
so
much
fun
😊

Less
fun
is
dealing
with
Eye4Fraud.
24
hours
on
from
recording
this
video,
there’s
still
zero
visible
progress
and
I
lament
that
this
one
is
just
going
to
slip
beneath
the
radar.
If
you’re
in
the
breach,
do
push
for
answers,
it
really
shouldn’t
be
this
hard.
All
that
and
more
in
this
week’s
video,
enjoy!

   Eye4Fraud
   –
   the
   one
   that
   gives
   merchants
   “guaranteed
   protection”
   –
   had
   lots
   of
   millions
   of
   their
   merchant’s
   transactions
   dumped
   (and
   to
   date,
   they
   don’t
   appear
   to
   have
   actually
   told
   anyone)

   the
   McLaren?)
